Protein Parathas

 

“Cooking a fantastic meal is therapeutic. I like the entire process-the chopping, the stirring. At the end, hopefully you get to enjoy a great meal with a friend or loved one.”

— Natalie Coughlin

Do you find cooking therapeutic? Not if it's an everyday chore 😆. But trying out a new recipe at a leisurely pace is definitely therapeutic. 

Today's recipe is Paneer and Onion Paratha from Tarla Dalal's book " Fun food for Children".  I have substituted spring onion with onion.

Ingredients

1/2 cup grated paneer 

1/2 cup finely chopped onions/spring onion

3/4 cup whole wheat flour 

1/2 tsp green chilli paste

salt and to taste

whole wheat flour  for rolling

2 tsp oil for cooking

Method

Combine all the ingredients in a deep bowl and knead into a soft dough using enough water.

Divide the dough into 8 equal portions and roll each portion into a 125 mm. (5") diameter circle using a little whole wheat flour for rolling.

Heat a non-stick tava  and cook each paratha, using ¼ tsp of oil, till golden brown spots appear on both the sides.

Serve hot with curds and pickle.
